Qiu Xi had barely settled into her seat when someone sent by Tong Mei arrived.
"You must be Qiu Xi," Guo Qi said, glancing at Qiu Xi, who had just sat down at her workstation. "I'm Guo Qi. Sister Tong asked me to help guide you."
"Hello, I'm Qiu Xi," Qiu Xi replied, standing up and extending her hand.
Guo Qi perfunctorily shook her hand. "Alright, I'm just here to pass on some information. You can sit down."
After Qiu Xi sat back down, Guo Qi opened the computer in front of her, plugged in a USB drive, and clicked on the file.
"This is your work for today. It's not much, and you should be able to complete it," she said, pointing to the file she had just opened.
"The computer has all the basic software installed, so I don't think you'll have any problems using it."
"Of course, if you encounter any issues, just look it up online yourself!"
"Everyone is busy with their own work, and no one will look for you unless they need you to do something. So, just sit here and do your work properly."
"Send the completed work directly to Sister Tong's email. The email address is already written at the end of the file."
"Okay, if there are no other questions, I'll be heading back. You can get busy now."
Guo Qi's tone was incredibly fast, like a triple-speed playback!
She finished explaining everything without even breaking a sweat; she was truly skilled.
Just as Qiu Xi was about to say something, Guo Qi spoke again. "If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, and they aren't work-related, you can find me. If they are work-related and you really can't solve them, then just leave them be, mark them, and report directly to Sister Tong tomorrow."
"Oh, right! We have morning meetings every day. Work starts at 9 AM, and the morning meeting usually lasts from half an hour to an hour. Keep that in mind."
With that, she left without looking back.
Qiu Xi, "......"
This was truly!
A bit too much...
With such speed in assigning tasks, she must save a lot of time on a daily basis, right?
Qiu Xi mumbled to herself before lowering her head and using the mouse to look at the file Guo Qi had opened for her.
"Hmm..."
The content was quite... indescribable.
After reading it from beginning to end, and then from end to beginning again, Qiu Xi had to accept that this was indeed the task she had to do.
It wasn't that it was difficult, but it was too simple!
After so many years, she was encountering this type of task again?
The first time she took on such a task was when she first started working with Teacher Yan. It was simple and not difficult at all.
If there was any difficulty, it was that it was a bit miscellaneous, and new people might find it hard to handle.
As for now, she looked at it as if she were looking at elementary school math—simple!
In an instant, a smile involuntarily appeared on Qiu Xi's lips.
With this in mind... her early departure today should be possible, right?
Thinking this, Qiu Xi's hands started moving, and they moved faster and faster.
Although Qiu Xi worked quickly, she still had some doubts in her heart.
Such a large company, and they assigned such a simple task?
Wouldn't she learn anything here?
Was this what the "Logistics Department" was like?
For a moment, Qiu Xi felt a sense of感慨 as she worked, wondering if coming here on Teacher Jin's advice was the right decision or not.
...
What was supposed to be a full day's work was completed by Qiu Xi shortly after work began in the afternoon.
She rubbed her fingers and scrolled up and down the mouse.
After confirming that there were no issues, she sent the email to Tong Mei as indicated at the bottom.
To prevent any misinterpretation on her part, Qiu Xi specifically sent another message to confirm.
The gist of it was whether she could really leave work now.
She couldn't help it; with such good treatment, why not enjoy it? She certainly wanted to!
In the partitioned office not far away, Tong Mei, who was in a state of distress, suddenly saw the message from Qiu Xi.
"What the heck is this?"
"She can leave work now?"
"Could she be a lazy person trying to fool me here?"
Tong Mei suppressed her temper and opened the email sent by Qiu Xi.
It loaded and opened, filled with text that looked quite legitimate, but she didn't know if it was real or fake.
Tong Mei spent some time and briefly scanned it from beginning to end.
"......"
"!!!"
She had underestimated!
This person didn't seem like a straw bag after all?
In an instant, Tong Mei was so angry with herself that she couldn't speak...
"Knock, knock, knock~"
"Come in." Tong Mei answered, pressing her hands down as if to steady herself.
The next second, Guo Qi walked in.
"Xiao Guo, what are you here for?" Tong Mei asked, glancing at her.
"Sister Tong, the new employee asked me to ask you if she can... leave work?"
Guo Qi's voice trailed off towards the end as she looked at Tong Mei with wide eyes.
"You!"
The anger that had just subsided now resurfaced.
"Huuu~"
Don't be angry, blame yourself. Xiao Guo is just a messenger, so you can't blame her... Yes! It's your own fault!
Huu!
"Alright, let her go home!"
"Sister Tong..."
"Hmm?" Tong Mei's eyes widened.
Guo Qi immediately stopped herself from saying anything further and nodded. "Okay, I'll go tell her."
Tong Mei responded, "Go ahead. Come to my office again in a bit."
"Okay, Sister Tong."
With that, Guo Qi walked out.
"Qiu Xi, Sister Tong said you can pack up and leave early."
This sentence delighted Qiu Xi, but surprised the others nearby who overheard it.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble."
After saying this, Qiu Xi looked at Guo Qi, who was walking back, and began to quickly tidy up her workstation, preparing to slip away early.
...
Five minutes later, after Qiu Xi left, the office, where people rarely spoke much throughout the day, suddenly became a little lively.
"What's up with that student? Why did she leave so early?"
"I don't know. Do you think she finished her tasks?"
"Impossible! Who has ever finished Sister Tong's tasks early? Not having to work overtime is already a huge relief. And she's just a student, how could she have that capability?"
"That's what you say, but the students who come here, aren't their tasks very simple? It's normal for them to leave early, right?"
"Normal what's normal!"
"Didn't others come before? Have you ever seen anyone leave so early after work! Look at the time now, it's only been a short while since work started. Could she have that capability?"
"I don't believe it!"
"Hmm... What you're saying does make some sense. Then why did she leave so early, what's the reason?"
"I guess... could it be that Sister Tong sent her away as soon as she arrived?"
"That, that... seems unlikely, right?"
"Sister Tong has never turned anyone away, especially since this one was brought by Manager Zhao."
"You have a point there. Sister Tong has been here for several years, and it seems she has never done such a thing... So, according to you, did she really finish today's work?" The last sentence was filled with doubt.
The person who said it didn't believe it herself, let alone those listening.
"I say..."
"Regardless of which it is! If we don't get back to our work, we'll probably be the ones working overtime today..."
"......"
"!!!"
"That's right! It's already been 5 minutes! If I don't continue, I'll really have to work overtime!"
"Me too!"
"Sister Tong was very angry today and scolded me. I probably can't escape overtime..."
"Who isn't!"
"......"
Slowly, after a few more sentences, the office quieted down again, as if they hadn't discussed anything at all, peaceful and undisturbed.
